Artist's comment
Enfolding the large scale of earth vibration, `Cosmic Space' & `Genesis' are my main themes. After all, I place `encounter' to my works just as I could encounter mine.
Gallery's comment
Berlin is one of the central spots for metal works and Watanabe has been welcomed over there. The most dedicated collector, who is the descendant of Professor Roentgen , once said “His piece is like the earth itself". His distinguished technique to draw out multiple colors from metals only with flames gains applause from worlds' curators.
